Zfp366 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable several functions, including RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; nuclear estrogen receptor binding activity; and transcription corepressor activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of intracellular estrogen receptor signaling pathway; negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and response to estrogen. Located in nucleus. Used to study DiGeorge syndrome. Orthologous to human ZNF366 (zinc finger protein 366). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Zfp366 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
